5. Kokkupanek ja seadistamine
Follow these steps to assemble your Miuzei Pi UPS PowerPack and integrate it with your Raspberry Pi. A Raspberry Pi board is not included in this kit.
- Apply Heatsinks: Carefully peel off the protective film from the thermal conductive adhesive on the heatsinks. Apply the heatsinks to the appropriate chips on your Raspberry Pi board. Ensure good contact for optimal heat dissipation.
- Mount the UPS Board: Secure the Miuzei Pi UPS PowerPack board to the bottom acrylic plate using the provided screws and short standoffs.
- Ühendage aku: Connect the Li-polymer battery to the designated battery interface on the UPS board. Ensure correct polarity. The board supports two batteries for increased capacity.
- Mount Raspberry Pi: Place your Raspberry Pi board on top of the UPS board, aligning the mounting holes. Use the longer brass standoffs to secure the Raspberry Pi to the UPS board and the top acrylic plate.
- Final Case Assembly: Attach the top acrylic plate using the remaining screws and nuts, completing the enclosure.
- Esmane tasu: Before first use, connect the Micro USB charging port on the UPS board to a 5V/2A power adapter using the provided Micro USB cable. Allow the battery to fully charge. The battery indicator LEDs will show charging progress.

6. Operatsioon
Sisse/välja lülitamine
- To power on the Raspberry Pi via the UPS board, ensure the battery is connected and the power output switch (labeled 'ON/OFF' or similar) is in the 'ON' position.
- To power off, switch the power output switch to the 'OFF' position.
Aku laadimine
- Connect a 5V/2A Micro USB power adapter to the Micro USB charging port on the UPS board.
- The battery indicator LEDs will illuminate to show the charging status. When all four LEDs are solid, the battery is fully charged.
- Märkus. The battery only using a micro USB power supply may not provide full power to the Raspberry Pi under heavy load. For optimal performance, ensure the power adapter meets the Raspberry Pi's requirements.
UPS-i funktsionaalsus
When the UPS board is connected to both a power adapter and the Raspberry Pi, it will power the Pi and simultaneously charge the battery. In the event of a power outage, the board will automatically switch to battery power without interrupting the Raspberry Pi's operation, ensuring a seamless transition.
Aku indikaatori LED-id
The four LEDs on the board indicate the approximate battery charge level:
- One LED: 0-25%
- Kaks LED-i: 25–50%
- Kolm LED-i: 50–75%
- Neli LED-i: 75–100%
7. Hooldus
- Aku hooldus: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. If storing the device for an extended period, charge the battery to approximately 50-70%.
- Puhastamine: Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the acrylic case and board. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Ülevaatus: Kontrollige perioodiliselt kõiki ühendusi ja kruvisid, et need oleksid kindlalt kinnitatud.
8. Veaotsing
- Raspberry Pi Not Powering On:
- Veenduge, et aku on laetud.
- Verify the power output switch on the UPS board is in the 'ON' position.
- Check all connections between the UPS board and the Raspberry Pi.
- Akut ei laeta:
- Confirm the Micro USB power adapter is functioning and connected correctly.
- Ensure the power adapter provides 5V/2A output.
- If the board stops accepting charging input after approximately 27 hours, try disconnecting and reconnecting the power source to reset the charging cycle. This behavior has been noted in some units.
- Short Battery Life / Unexpected Shutdowns:
- The power consumption of your Raspberry Pi setup (including peripherals) directly impacts battery life. Reduce unnecessary loads if extended runtime is required.
- Some users have reported that the unit may slowly discharge the battery even when connected to AC power, potentially leading to unexpected shutdowns after extended periods. Ensure regular monitoring of battery charge status, especially for critical applications.
- Ensure the battery is fully charged before relying on battery power.
- Ülekuumenemine:
- Verify that the heatsinks are properly installed on the Raspberry Pi's main chips.
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the assembled unit.
